Abstract
Abstract Ion association has been studied by positron lifetime spectroscopy in aqueous solutions containing the Ni2+ and SO 4 2– ions at 294 K with the double aim of assessing the reliability of the method for quantitative determination of complex formation constants and of probing the validity of various expressions to calculate single-ion activity coefficients at high ionic strength. The existence of two complexes, identified as NiSO4 and Ni2SO 4 2+ , is shown by the data analysis. Considering the formation constant of the former, KI=(196±10)M–1, determined in previous works leads to discarding several of the expressions commonly used for activity corrections. Two possible values are retained for KI, (193±20)M–1 and (179±20)M–1, while KII related to Ni2SO 4 2+ is better defined, as (2.57±0.14)M–1.
